Summary: Good Choice
Comment: I chose to recommend this book to my undergraduate students taking my "Managing Information Technology" course. My colleagues and I have found that most MIS books focus more on the components of information systems or on their strategic use - and they miss the middle (management) ground entirely.

"Managing and Using IS" covers the basics only in brief. It then devotes itself to key, mid-level, management issues most important for understanding the IS organization, its components, and associated issues. This book goes into greater detail than other MIS books.

This is a basic book and quite an asset to students struggling to learn about IS organizations and their management. Unfortunately, it is grossly overpriced. At this writing, I am tempted to simply modify the book's topic outline and allow my students to conduct their own research into these issues. Such an approach would foster some really interesting classroom discussions, build valuable research skills...

If you'd rather spend the money and have the static information handed to you, then this book will not disappoint.
